Which Should You Buy?

Our Verdict - New York

A divisive classic that splits opinion between masterful, classy sophistication and 'old man' datedness. Some find it a timeless, versatile masterpiece, while others are put off by its traditional, powdery nature or performance issues in newer formulations.

Our Verdict - Eau de Verveine

This is a proper old-school aromatic citrus, conjuring images of timeless grooming and nature walks. It's a classic that some will find comforting and sophisticated, while others might label it a bit too vintage or 'grandpa-ish'.
